Join an independent publisher specializing in experimental fiction and poetry to design a compelling book cover for an upcoming short story collection, "Future Perfect." The project centers on creating a visually striking 6" x 9" hardcover dust jacket, using a commissioned photograph of raisin pie as the focal point. The desired aesthetic draws inspiration from New York late-night diners, blending nostalgic ambiance with a modern, literary edge. You will receive high-quality photographs from a dedicated pie photoshoot and an AI‑generated concept image to guide the creative direction for the title treatment and overall design.
